Sunday Stroll: A Backward Glance

Today I'm keenly conscious of the impending shift. Considering how cool and often wet our so-called summmer has been in New England, it's surprising how serenely I contemplate the nearness of autumn.

On our morning walk I never quite made it past the "chilly" stage, never really warmed up despite the dogs moving me along at a brisk pace.

Today will include summer-y Labor Day Weekend-ish activities--boat ride with near neighbours, bratwurst on the grill. Even though the Chap and I are making the most of these three days of leisure (well, I am writing a lot, too) I'm inclined to glance over my shoulder back at some special moments of the season. Which in some sense comes to an abrupt end tomorrow, although the 21st is still some days off.

So I'm strolling through weeks past. None of these photos has previously been featured on a Sunday.
